My passion for bicycling

My first love of bikes started when my parents bought me my first balloon tired Schwinn back in 1959.  The bike was a bit too big for my little frame but it was what my parents could afford at the time (second hand) and I made it work.

Since that time, I've had many bicycles and loved them all, basically because they give me the chance to be who I am, a person who loves exercise, freedom and nature.  There is nothing like an early morning ride and communing with deer, fox, geese flying over and a haze of fog hanging over the landscape just before sunrise.

I now live in two different locations - Florida and Rhode Island - living on "Main St USA" in both locations. Using my bicycle for transportation and errands is a great feeling and helps the environment!

Everyone knows it is my passion.
